Lucas' First Two Months

Lucas is already two months old!  He is a very good baby!  This is good because having four kids is proving to be a lot of work!  Here are some highlights of our first two months:

This is the right when he got home from the hospital.  I got him this cute coming home outfit:
 Our first night at home with four kids:
 His cute little newborn sleeper from Sandy: 
 Sunday lunch at Papa and Grandma's; yes, of course we were there at 5 days old!  
We don't like missing our Sundays together!

 Look at all of that hair!  He still has a lot at two months, but it doesn't look as thick.  
I don't know if he's lost some or if his head is just getting bigger!
 Daddy studying his new boy's face:
 Lucas had a little jaundice so daddy took him for a walk in the sun while mommy went to vote.  
It was such a warm early March day (in the 70s)!
 We joked about this being Lucas' nursery.  I guess this is as good as it gets for #4.  He does have a changing table and dresser in Jacob's room though.  Maybe Aleah will give up the crib soon.
 The kids love taking turns holding him:

 Let's just say Lucas did not enjoy his first bath at home:


 Aww, but didn't he look so pretty afterwards:
 Passed out with mommy:
 He spent his first two months sleeping on mommy, literally 24 hours a day.  At night, we slept in the recliner together.  During the day, he hung out in this baby carrier, which I love!  Great bonding time; I love my boy!


 TWO babies sleeping on me!  Best feeling ever!
 So cute I can't stop taking pictures:
 

 First bathtub bath not that much better:
 Looking like his mama here, I think:
  That little face...







 Meeting Great Grandma Reeves:
 One Month Old!!!

 Hanging with Great Aunt Becky:
 Cousin Megan got us this awesome baby gift:

 Jacob was really helpful holding Lucas while I tried to get us ready to go places:
 Our favorite way to hang:
 Luke & Leah: 
 Lucas has NOT taken to the paci.  Aleah was successful with him for a few minutes one day:
 Cute outfit from Grandma Teresa:


 Haha, I did not pose him... 
 All day, every day for months:


 He's really good at putting himself to sleep.  Sometimes tummy time wears him out:
 And just like that he's 2 months old already!


At two months, Lucas was over 12 lbs., and was just beginning to smile, roll over, and sleep through the night--about 8 hours before waking, which usually still means one very early morning feeding (4 am) but I'm not complaining!
